Finding A Therapist
If someone feels they need psychotherapeutic help, they may wish to get some professional advice on their treatment of choice. In the first instance, this may be their GP. Alternatively, they may find it useful to have an initial consultation with a psychotherapist who would be able to advise on the best approach. Most of its member organisations operate a referral service.
If they decide that psychoanalytic psychotherapy is the right choice for them, they can either contact a therapist directly or go through a referral service. It is preferable to use the BPC website as this will contain the latest updated information, including whether the therapist is still a BPC registrant in good standing.

Famous quotes containing the words finding and/or therapist:
“To have no son, no wife,
No house or land still seemed quite natural.
Only a numbness registered the shock
Of finding out how much had gone of life,
How widely from the others.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Deep inside us, we know what every family therapist knows: the problems between the parents become the problems within the children.”
—Roger Gould (20th century)
